244. Killing rewards, monthly ticket for fighting soul and tiger soul)
"You know?"
Zhou Shu and others looked at Shi Songtao at the same time, wondering.
Sending the secret agent should be an action of the military. If Ji Lutian is a secret agent sent by Daxia, then Mi Ziwen should be aware of it.
Unexpectedly, before Mi Ziwen remembered who Ji Lutian was, Shi Songtao actually knew.
"Your Majesty, I think things may be different from what you think."
Shi Songtao said, "This Ji Lutian may not be a spy sent by the Ten Kingdoms to the demon world. He may have been abducted by the demon world from the martial arts battlefield of the Ten Kingdoms."
Zhou Shu was slightly startled.
Don't tell me, it's really possible.
He was able to capture so many monsters in the ten kingdoms through martial arts, so naturally people from the monster world can do the same.
"No matter how he got to the demon world, do you know who he is?"
Zhou Shu asked.
"Ji Lutian is not from Daxia, he is a master craftsman of the Qin Dynasty!"
Shi Songtao said, "A hundred years ago, Ji Lutian was the most famous military craftsman at that time. Even Xu Shi, the great military craftsman of Great Qin today, is far inferior to Ji Lutian."
"A master craftsman of the Qin Dynasty?"
Zhou Shu nodded, thoughtfully.
No wonder Yao Qing has a heavenly weapon in his hand.
If Ji Lutian is a master craftsman of weapons, it is understandable that he would cast a heavenly weapon for his son.
I just don’t know what the situation is like when Ji Lutian is trapped in the demon world.
"Do you think Da Qin knows that Ji Lutian is still alive?"
Zhou Shu touched his chin and said, "If I can get such a famous weapon-smith back to them, how much can Great Qin pay me?"
Yin Wuyou, Mi Ziwen and Shi Songtao all had black lines on their faces.
Is this kind of thing really good to measure in terms of money?
"My lord, you seem to be the king of Qin..."
Shi Songtao said weakly.
You are the king of Da Qin, and it seems only natural that the people who saved Da Qin should come back.
"Ma Dan!"
Zhou Shu was stunned for a moment and cursed secretly.
Damn Emperor Qin, using such an empty title makes me embarrassed to discuss money with him again!
No, that bastard only gave himself a name, but where is my salary!
I have to talk to that guy again later!
"Second brother, you let Yao Qing go because you wanted to contact Ji Lutian through him?"
Mi Ziwen said in a deep voice.
Over the years, the Ten Kingdoms have sent countless spies to the demon world, but no one has ever been able to come back.
If we can really get in touch with Ji Lutian, it will definitely be an earth-shattering event.
In this way, they can have a better understanding of the demon world, and the Ten Kingdoms will no longer be so passive in martial arts.
"Just how do we judge whether Ji Lutian has betrayed the human race?"
"I don't know."
Zhou Shu simply shook his head and said, "I just did it casually. I'm not sure whether it will work or not."
"Anyway, there is no loss in letting Yao Qing go. The big deal is, we can just kill him later."
Zhou Shu said.
"Your Majesty!"
While several people were talking, a soldier hurried over.
"A group of our people is coming outside."
The soldier said loudly.
"Oh? Someone is here again?"
Zhou Shu said, "Our camp is going to grow stronger again."
"Brother, Da Sikong, let's go take a look."
Zhou Shu should go first.
By the time they arrived at the gate of the camp, Mei Wushang had already put the people into the camp.
Zhou Shu immediately saw Liang Hongxiu, whose face was covered in blood, carrying a woman in Tsing Yi on his back. Next to her, Yang Hong was also carrying a man covered in blood.
"Lu Wenshuang? Yang Hong? How did you meet together?"
Zhou Shu said in surprise.
"Your Majesty, please save my general."
As soon as she saw Zhou Shu, Liang Hongxiu's tears fell down. She bent her knees and was about to kneel down.
Zhou Shu quickly supported her, "What's going on?"
"Senior Sister Xiao Lu!"
Yin Wuyou had already rushed to Liang Hongxiu's side and took Lu Wenshuang off her back.
Lu Wenshuang's eyes were closed tightly, her face was as golden as paper, and her breath was very messy and vague.
"On the way here, we encountered a large group of monsters. In order to protect us, the general did not hesitate to use secret techniques..."
Liang Hongxiu said while crying.
Zhou Shu frowned.
"Da Sikong, bring people into the room first."
Zhou Shu said in a deep voice, Fortunately, as long as the person is not dead, he is lucky.
No matter how serious the injury is, it can always be cured.
When a person dies, there is nothing he can do.
"Prince——"
Zhou Shu was about to think of a way to cure Lu Wenshuang, when Yang Hong suddenly stopped him.
"Yang Shenqing, if anything happens, we'll talk about it later. Saving people is more important."
Zhou Shu said.
"Your Majesty, I can't wait! We are in urgent need!"
Yang Hong said anxiously.
Zhou Shu frowned slightly, stopped and looked at Yang Hong.
Yang Hong was carrying a person on his back, and that person's condition didn't look much better than Lu Wenshuang's.
"Who is this?"
Zhou Shu saw that the man looked a little strange and asked in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, I rescued this man from the demon world!"
Yang Hong said in a deep voice.
Surrounded by his own people, Yang Hong did not hide anything.
Everyone was stunned when they heard Yang Hong's words.
Rescued from the demon world?
Even Liang Hongxiu and others were stunned.
They met Yang Hong on the way.
It turned out that they were fighting monsters, and the monster-slaying military captain Zhang Heng died in battle. Before he died, he didn't even have time to shoot the cloud-piercing arrow.
When Liang Hongxiu and others could not find the direction of the camp, they suddenly met Yang Hong.
Lu Wenshuang and Liang Hongxiu both knew Yang Hong, and they came to the camp without much exchange of greetings.
Now they know that Yang Hong came back from the demon world?
"Yang Shenquan, you don't want to tell me that you went to the demon world, right?"
If he didn't know Yang Hong well and knew that he was not a bluffing person, Zhou Shu would really suspect that he was bragging.
"How can I do that?"
Yang Hong smiled bitterly and said, "I met a monster before. You know my strength, Your Highness, and I am definitely no match for it."
"Just when I was fighting with that monster, I was suddenly taken to a place by him."
"Then that monster was killed by this man. Before he passed out, he told me that place was the monster world, and he told me to run away."
Yang Hong was very nervous, and his words were somewhat inconsistent.
Zhou Shu listened for a long time before he could barely understand what he meant.
"Are you saying that some monsters can leave the Ten Kingdoms Martial Arts Arena and return to the monster world now?"
Zhou Shu said in a deep voice.
According to past experience, once the Ten Kingdoms Martial Arts Exercise is started, the space here will be sealed to a certain extent, and only after three years can the people inside be able to leave.
This is true for the Ten Kingdoms and the demon army.
Now Yang Hong says that he was taken to the demon world by a monster, which is a big problem.
If monsters can now travel freely to and from the monster world, it will definitely not be a good thing for the armies of the Ten Kingdoms.
This shows that they can exchange news and have reinforcements arriving at any time, but the armies of the Ten Nations cannot communicate with the outside world. Within three years, they will be alone!
"That's right."
Yang Hong said seriously, "I don't know how that monster did it. Anyway, he bumped into me, and then I went to the monster world."
"Then how did you return?"
Zhou Shu said in a deep voice.
"He brought me back."
Yang Hong pointed at the man on his back and said.
"After he brought me back, he fainted."
Yang Hong said anxiously, "Your Majesty, he must have important news to report!"
"I know."
Zhou Shu said in a deep voice. He took out a Breakthrough Pill without hesitation and stuffed it into the man's mouth.
He does not know medical skills, and there is no doctor in the camp.
Mi Ziwen has similar medical skills, but it is obvious that he has no good way to treat such a patient who is almost dying.
Breaking the Realm Pill is the only solution Zhou Shu can think of now.
As for whether it can be effective, it depends on the person's luck.
To be honest, if he is a strong man of the first level of martial arts, the realm-breaking pill must be ineffective.
Even if not, whether the Breaking Realm Pill can survive or not really depends on luck.
Not all injuries can be cured by upgrading.
Including Lu Wenshuang.
Lu Wenshuang also took a Breakthrough Pill, and then asked Shi Songtao to settle Liang Hongxiu and others. Zhou Shu met Mi Ziwen, Yin Wuyou, Mei Wushang and others in a stone house.
Everyone is considered to be the top brass of the army in the camp. They were very happy to have defeated Yao Qing's army.
But the news Yang Hong brought back made everyone feel a little heavy.
People in the demon world can travel freely, which is definitely not good news.
"If people in the demon world can really travel back and forth freely, then why didn't the demon beasts return to the demon world when we attacked them before?"
Mi Ziwen said in a deep voice, "Or do we need to meet certain conditions before they can travel to and from the demon world?"
"It should look like this."
Yin Wuyou said, "But even so, if the demon world army can pass on the news, then they can send targeted reinforcements, and we will be in danger."
"There is another question, that is, can people from the demon world travel to and from the demon world anytime and anywhere, or is there a fixed passage?"
Mi Ziwen frowned and said, "If it is a fixed channel, is the channel always open, or-"
"It should not be turned on all the time."
Yang Hong said.
"I tried it after I came back and couldn't find the passage."
He has rich experience in martial arts, and he has tested what Mi Ziwen said on the spot.
"I do think that the monster that drove Yang Shen to the monster world may not have done so on his own initiative."
Zhou Shu pondered, "If an ordinary monster can travel freely to and from this world, then the previous army of monsters will not be defeated by us. They can completely escape back to the monster world."
"My guess is that it is very likely that a space crack happened to be where Yang Shenqi fought with the monster, and then the two of them fell into it and went to the monster world."
"And that space crack is most likely caused by the man Yang Shen rescued."
Mi Ziwen and others had expressions of contemplation on their faces, and after a moment, everyone nodded.
What Zhou Shu said is more logical in a certain sense.
"If your guess, second brother, is true, then what is the origin of the people Yang Shen rescued? What kind of cultivation level can break the space?"
Mi Ziwen said in a deep voice.
"He may not necessarily be relying on his own ability. If he really had that ability, wouldn't he be able to come back long ago?"
Zhou Shu said, "My guess is that some accident happened between this world and the demon world, which caused some cracks in the barrier that blocked this world and the demon world, and this person took advantage of these cracks." A sudden thought came to Zhou Shu's mind that there was something wrong with Da Qin's Guo Zhen Guo Ding, but this time the Ten Kingdoms Military Exercise was held normally.
He has been wondering whether Da Qin's Guo Zhen Guo Ding does not affect the martial arts performance space of these ten countries?
Now the news brought back by Yang Hong has given Zhou Shu some more speculations.
Maybe it’s not that it has no impact, but that it has an impact and I just didn’t notice it!
The Guo Zhending tripod is a barrier that protects the ten countries. If there is a problem with one of the tripods, it means that the barrier is no longer perfect.
Perhaps this is also related to the fact that the demon world’s army is able to descend with so much power this time.
Thinking of this, Zhou Shu frowned slightly.
If there is really a problem with the barrier, will the army of the demon world be able to march straight in?
If this is really the case, then the trouble will be big.
If the demon world's army occupied this world and invaded the outside world through here, it would be a catastrophe for the ten countries.
"No matter what the truth is now, we must prepare for the worst."
Mizi Wen said seriously, "If the demon world's army can really come and go in this world at will, then we may have to face more than the demon world's army currently in this world."
"If we are defeated, three years later, when the passage is opened again, the demon world's army will be able to march straight in. By then, the Ten Kingdoms will no longer be around."
Mi Ziwen's heart is heavy. The demon world's army is already stronger than the armies of the Ten Kingdoms here. If they can still have endless support, how can they fight this battle?
The confidence that originally arose because of Cangyun Armor was somewhat lacking.
"You must be prepared."
Zhou Shu was not as pessimistic as Mi Ziwen, "It would be a good thing if we can really go to the demon world. I know that the demon world has several unique materials for casting weapons..."
Everyone looked at each other, this prince really dared to think about it.
Is it possible that he still wants to capture the demon world?
Speaking of which, the prince seems to like using monsters as miners...
Everyone shook their heads with a wry smile. Subduing hundreds of monsters and conquering the monster world are not the same thing.
"Don't worry, wait until the man Yang Shen rescued wakes up and figure out what's going on. If there is really a space crack leading to it, I would like to go to the demon world for a while."
Zhou Shu touched his chin and said, he really knows that there are several special weapon-making materials in the demon world. If he can get it, he can definitely forge a batch of very good weapons.
When he entered the Dream Demon Festival before, after seeing these weapons-making materials, he kept thinking about them.
If he could really go to the demon world, Zhou Shu would really like to take a tour. With his current level of cultivation, he wouldn't be afraid of any danger. If he couldn't defeat him, wouldn't he be able to escape?
